The following resolutions will be presented:

1. The Finance Department will present a resolution to approve a Budget Amendment for the 2025-2026 Budget relating to the Appropriations of Funds for the Fire Impact Fee Fund. The Fire Station 22 project costs were higher than expected, so the City Council will look to amend the budget to cover the extra $230,000.
2. The Finance Department will present a resolution to approve a Budget Amendment for the 2025-2026 Budget relating to the Appropriation of Funds for the Transportation Impact Fee Fund and the Old Kings Road Special Assessment Fund. The City of Palm Coast recorded a $20,000 higher transfer than expected between funds, so City Council will look to amend the budget to match the actual amount.

City Council Districts 2, 3, and 4, and City Charter Amendments 1, 2, and 3 were on the November 3, 2026, General Election ballot.
